Riverside Ride

Had just enough time before we sailed from Dieppe Park in Windsor to ride down a nice wide bike path to the Ambassador bridge and back as a full moon was setting.



I have to say that downtown Windsor is one of the more depressing examples of urban wasteland but the city has done a wonderful job of beautifying the riverfront with gardens and sculptures.


A shoreline can mask a lot of ills. Downtown Detroit looks positively idyllic in the early morning light.


The sun was just peaking over the horizon as I got back to the ship.


With the ice from this past winter a fading memory, the river has become dotted with fishing boats out to catch the first bass of the season and give headaches to the large ships trying to transit through the waterway.
